Answer:
20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is 1pm today and school holidays officially begin on Saturday at 9 amHow many hours away are school holidays?
The above question is quite short especially in details required to derive an answer
Now let's assume that the particular day been talked about is the day Friday,and we are now asked to find out how many hours away we are from holidays given that it(holiday) starts on 9am on Saturday .
If 24 hours make a day,and in the next 24 hours it will be 1pm on Saturday, then it means that we are less than a day away from this supposed holiday starting by 9 in the morning of Saturday.
All we now have to do is to subtract the number of hours 1pm to 9am to know the number of hours that we are looking for.
So,from 9am to 1pm is a difference of 4 hours,and we now have to subtract it from 24 hours to get 20 hours.
